Chelsea were an absolute shit show at the beginning of the season and it wasn't because of Potter.A great manager do me a favour. He didn’t stamp any kind of authority down at Chelsea the players were laughing at him.
Potter had a fair enough crack at it 3.5 seasons and didn’t achieve top six, didn’t even come close.We'll never know. Roberto did an absolutely incredible job but Potter's work before hand as also played a part in his success.
And now Roberto has taken us backwardsPotter had a fair enough crack at it 3.5 seasons and didn’t achieve top six, didn’t even come close.
There is always an excuse for Potter’s failing by some it’s quite bizarre considering he pissed off without a second thought taking most of the back room staff with him.Chelsea were an absolute shit show at the beginning of the season and it wasn't because of Potter.
Took Pochettino the best part of a season to sort out that squad into something reasonable. I'm sure Potter would have done the same given the time, if not better.
Not really a fit squad all season would have been very different. Mitoma being the biggest miss.And now Roberto has taken us backwards
But still same challenges for everyone , over a 38 game season history books don’t lie.Not really a fit squad all season would have been very different. Mitoma being the biggest miss.
Anybody know what De Zerbi’s odds were the day Potter left?
Everyone relaxes when relegation is not a threat, Wolves have won once in ten games. Palace got their best players back before that the new manager was struggling.But still same challenges for everyone , over a 38 game season history books don’t lie.
Squad was plenty good enough with other players than bottom 3/ bottom 4 form shows
Except for when Potter finished 9thEveryone relaxes when relegation is not a threat,
Backwards is probably harsh. In terms of final league position yes, although we know the extenuating circumstances behind that. Overall though we have continued to progress as a club, competing in European football whilst (on the whole) playing attractive footballAnd now Roberto has taken us backwards
Bmuff away was bizarre 15 points to play for Conference was still achievable and he plays a youth team. If I was Bloom that may have been a final straw.Backwards is probably harsh.

Nobody realistically expected us to challenge for the top 6 again this season
The problem is any manager that does well (e.g. qualify for Europe or win a cup) will end up with speculation around them leaving.I actually find myself struggling to care at the moment.
Part of me just wants someone who is going to stick around without constant speculation on his next job.
Same with any decent player , play a couple of decent games like Furgerson did , suddenly everyone wants to buy himThe problem is any manager that does well (e.g. qualify for Europe or win a cup) will end up with speculation around them leaving.
